This episode is me explicitly speaking to Black colleagues in the workplace.
How much of who I am is because of how I've been treated?
In sharing my reflections on my identify, I hope to give you some insight into the inside work needed when you have spent your professional life assimilating, integrating, surviving and fighting for recognition.
I speak about how I didn't use my voice enough and explore the reasons why that was.
Who would you be if you lived according to who you are, not in response to how you’ve been treated?
A question applicable for everyone, yet here, I take a specific context of being a Black colleague in the workplace to unpick this.
